👶✨ Hailee Steinfeld and Josh Allen Expecting Their First Baby Together
Actress and singer Hailee Steinfeld is officially stepping into a new chapter of her life.
The Hawkeye star, 29, is pregnant with her first child with husband and NFL quarterback Josh Allen, also 29. The couple shared the joyful news on Instagram on Friday, December 12, with a sweet and intimate video that quickly captured fans’ hearts.
In the clip, Steinfeld and Allen embrace, share a kiss, and hold hands as the camera pans down to reveal her baby bump. Steinfeld lifts her sweater — which reads “mother” in bold lettering — while a tiny snowman wearing a red scarf sits between them, adding a playful winter touch to the announcement.
💑 A Love Story Kept Mostly Private
Steinfeld and Allen have been romantically linked since 2023, though they have consistently kept their relationship out of the spotlight.
They didn’t go Instagram-official until July 2024, when Allen posted photos from a trip to Paris — including one with Steinfeld, though her face was not shown. By November 2024, the couple confirmed their engagement with a joint post revealing Allen’s proposal date: 11•22•24.
USA TODAY has reached out to Steinfeld’s representative for comment.
💍 “I Can’t Wait to Start a Family With You”
Allen later opened up about the proposal in a conversation with Steinfeld for her Beau Society newsletter, sharing a heartfelt detail from that morning.
According to Allen, as he prepared to propose, Steinfeld turned to him and asked, “Can we get married already?”
“I said, ‘I can’t wait any longer,’” Allen recalled.
“I said, ‘I can’t wait to start a family with you.’ I said your full name, I asked you very nicely, and you said yes. That’s all that mattered.”
🎬 Steinfeld Embracing a New Phase of Life
In recent interviews, Steinfeld has spoken openly about how her relationship with Allen has reshaped her sense of purpose.
In a Bustle profile, she described trying on her wedding dress for the first time as a moment that “literally took her breath away,” adding:
“I thank God every day that I found my person. Life makes sense. Everything makes sense.”
When asked directly if she had been thinking about having children, Steinfeld answered simply: “Of course.”
Now, just over a year after confirming their engagement, the couple is preparing to welcome their first child — a milestone that fans across both Hollywood and the NFL are celebrating.
